Every word as you know has a particular sound. Every sound has a meaning. Some of those sounds and meanings bring states beyond belief. For an everyday word. Om is one of those words. Learning how to meditate on it gives you faster path to higher spiritual consciousness. Linking to universal consciousness.

The word Om itself is a mystical sacred syllable within Indian religions. In many systems it translates directly as a name of god. It also emphasizes the singularity of god. Or god energy. Also aether or ether. Or universal consciousness.

Put simply “universal spiritual energy“.

Just making the sound is enough to start shifting things. Within your mind. Within your energy field. At times this can be profound. Bringing you a great level of peace.

The Om Symbol

Why meditate on Om? Probably the biggest reason is to get a close connection with the universe. Linking close to the universal spiritual energy.

Energy that connects us all.

It generates the flow of life you experience. Linking to this spiritual energy deeply brings you a greater degree of mastery over your life. A chance to begin again. If you wish. A rebirth. To a more conscious state.

A state that brings great fulfilment.

Also through linking with this energy profound spiritual healing is possible. Through connecting with the source of universal consciousness that is. Achieving spiritual healing is a good thing.

Allowing you to live more fully and happily.

Meditation on Om is relatively simple. Even for those learning how to meditate. No new age technique. People have done it for thousands of years. Because of it’s value spiritually.

Go into yourmeditation space. Get into a comfortable seated position. Seated so you can make the sounds easily. Clear your mind. Close or keep your eyes open. Your choice. Calmly breathe in through your nose.

Gently exhale through your mouth making the sound Om.

Initially you may feel little change. Keep your mind clear. Repeat the chant over and over. You will feel different. The Om chant (or mantra) shifts the mind higher and higher within its spiritual realm.

When you focus on the top of your head. On your crown chakra. You can elevate this feeling higher. You can take this even further. Have purple or white in front of you. They deepen the state of your mind. Making your Om meditation stronger.

Your mind lifts higher. Your soul feels lighter. A sense of relief comes with it. It does require practice. Though the benefits of this meditation are amazing.

The joy is profound.

The spiritual healing you get can resolve many issues in your life. Threads that seemed random before get meaning.

Incense can be very good during this practice. It can aid with relaxing your mind. If you wish to use music, something light without lyrics is best. There are many good meditation music CDs in the US, UK and many other countries.
